GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

This

appliance

must

be

grounded.

In

the

event

of

malfunction

or

breakdown,

grounding

will

reduce

the

risk

of

electric

shock

by

providing

a

path

of

least

resistance

for

electric

current.

This

appliance

is

equipped

with

a

cord

having

an

equipment-grounding

conductor

and

grounding

plug.

The

plug

must

be

plugged

into

an

appropriate

outlet

that

is

properly

installed

and

grounded

in

accordance

with

all

local

codes

and

ordinance.

?

Do

not

use

an

adapter

To

reduce

the

risk

of

fire,

electric

shock,

or

injury

to

persons

when

using

the

follow

basic

precautions,

including

the

following:

SAVE

THESE

INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

:

Improper

conductor

can

result

in

risk

of electric

shock.

Check

with

a

qualified

To

minimize

the

risk

of

fire

in

a

tumble

dryer,

the

following

should

be

observed:

?

Items

that

have

been

spotted

or

soaked

with

vegetable

or

cooking

oil

constitute

a

fire

hazard

and

should

not

be

placed

in

a

tumble

dryer.

Oil-affected

items

can

ignite

spontaneously,

especially

when

exposed

to

heat

sources

Such

as

in

a

tumble

dryer.

The

items

become

warm,

causing

an

oxidation

reaction

in

the

oil.

Oxidation

creates

heat.

If

the

heat

cannot

escape,

the

items

can

become

hot

enought

to

catch

fire.

Piling,

stacking

or

storing

oil-affected

items

can

prevent

heat

from

escaping

and

so

create

a

fire

hazard.

If it

is

unavoidable

that

fabrics

that

contain

vegetable

or

cooking

oil

or

have been

contaminated

by

hair

care

products

be

placed

in

a

tumble

dryer

they

should

first

be

washed

in

hot

water

with

extra

detergent-this

will

reduce,

but

not

eliminate,

the

hazard.

washed

in

hot

water

with

extra

etergent-this

will

reduce,

but

not

eliminate,

the hazard.

The

'cool

down'

cycle

of

tumble

dryers

should

be

used

to

reduce

the

temperature

of

the

items.

They

should

not

be

removed

from

the

tumble

dryer

or

piled

or

stacked

while

hot.

?

Items

that

have

been

previously

cleaned

in,

washed

in,

soaked

in

or

spotted

with

petro/gasoline,

dry-cleaning

solvents

or

other

flammable

or

explosive

substances

should

not

be

placed

in

a

Highly

flammable

substances

commonly

used

in

domestic environments

include

acetone,

denatured

alcohol,

and

?

Items

containing

foam

(also

known

as

latex

foam)

or

similarly

testured

rubber.

like

materials

should

not

be

dried

in

a

tumble

dryer

on

a

heat

setting.

Foam

rubber

materials

can,

when

heated,

produce

fire

by

spontaneous

combustion.

?

Fabric

softeners

or

similar

products

should

not

be

used

in

a

tumble

dryer

to

eliminate

the

effects

of

static

electricity

unless

this

practice

is

specifically

recommended

by

the

manufacturer

of

the

fabric

softener

or

product.

?

Undergarments

that

contain

metal

reinforcements

should

not

be

placed

in

a

tumble

dryer.

Damage

to

the

tumble

dryer

can

result

if

metal

reinforcements

come

loose

during

drying.

When

available

a

drying

rack

could

be

used

for

such

items.

?

Plaxtic

articles

such

as

shower

caps

or

babies

waterproof

napkin

covers

should

not

be

placed

in

a

tumble

dryer.

?

Rubber-backed
